The Disciplinary Domain of Humanities and Social Sciences will be participating in the Uppsala International Literature Festival on 27–29 March 2025. The research programme Democracy and Higher Education will take part in conversations on literary creation around major contemporary areas of conflict.
“The Festival’s most important ambition is to highlight voices, authors, texts and literary forms that are not seen or heard in the literary field in Sweden. We don’t hear much in Sweden from or about literature from Africa – those authors who publish locally and in particular in languages other than the colonial languages,” says Christina Kullberg, Professor of French at the Department of Modern Languages, and a co-organiser of the Literature Festival through the research programme Democracy and Higher Education.
